The Sended's

Chapter 27: Magic, Mana, and all Around it

"Rune up! Runes!"

Opening my eyes, I was in my house where there were Kyouka and the visiting elders

It seems my father and mother were very worried to the extent, even though all this time I did not think too much of them. Maybe this is what the gods refer to as 'tools'

Why did I suddenly faint?

"What are you doing on the hill?" Ask the elder to Kyouka

"Rune accompanied me to learn magic, and then she dabbled"

"Lofi-" I intend to stop him but my body especially my stomach feels very painful even to speak

Why these? Did I get the sickly child's body?

"That's a symptom when you use mana until it runs out" said the elder

"Eh? Can you explain in more detail the elder?" Nice Kyouka

If I could talk I would also ask the elder to do the same

"To use magic, we need another thing called mana. It is the magic fuel itself, like firewood for cooking. Mana can also affect the body of its user if it is used continuously, that's what the Runes are experiencing now,"

So I do, but that means I can only use one creation magic before my other limb is broken?

"If the user runs out of mana, then automatically his body will be tired and sleep to collect mana back. But if the case is like rune, I think he forced himself to use the rest of his last mana

That's how it's going to be, but you can rest easy because the wound from running out of mana will also heal when your mana capacity is replenished,"

Oho! So I can keep practicing magic?

"But! If your mana is completely depleted, then you will die. Remember that,"

W-wah is not so deh, I need information to increase my mana capacity before practicing magic

The elder left my house after giving that warning

Hehe, as if I would just ignore it....

I have died once, if there is anything that threatens my life I will be afraid, but not for fear of death but for fear of losing everything I build

"Then I will go looking for medicine, you rest first Runes," said my father

"Yes that's right, I will also make food so that you recover quickly," said my mother, she also went to the kitchen

It's just me and Kyouka now, therefore we can freely chat any topic

"You're really reckless, Ryuu,"

"Who knows it's going to be like this.., too...,"

Kyouka said she brought me here, I think my body is quite light

"Rune, your other friend came to see you" said Mother

The three boys came here too, is this what it's like to have friends...?

Creation Magic: Making Fire Magic: Fireball

This time I managed to create a fireball and I shot towards the empty land on this hill, but not until the purpose of the ball was exploded. I think it has something to do with my minimal imagination

If so, I have to practice my imagination and to do so I need a lot of experience. In this new world, my experience is still zero, even I don't know any tribe other than this Afiel

Tomorrow, tomorrow again, and tomorrow again we both head to the same hill to practice magic. We continued to train until the day the other three children found us, when it was me and Kyouka stopped and the next day continued in a different location

Kyouka himself seems to only be able to use fire element magic, he is now able to form various things with his fire. Of course he is also exhausted if he uses magic too often, but our levels are far different

Lucky for him because he has a large mana capacity. on the other hand I can only use one rapalan per day.

Uh! I almost forgot something, though,

"Kyouka, where are you still left?"

"Well, maybe about two tidbits" just envious

He used five tapes today

"Your flaming arrow shot at me,"

Hearing this he was very surprised, because the fire arrow was the fastest Kyouka to reach the target

"What did you say? You're telling me to kill you? I know that your body is not blessed this time, but please do not give up, there are many ways for you to be useful without magic," Is that sincere or is indeed mocking me?

"Not stupid, I want to try something" I said walking away giving some distance

About ten steps and I stopped, I waved my hand as a sign for Kyouka to start her tidy

Creation Magic: Wood Sword

The sword appeared in my hand according to my perfect imagination

There, Kyouka begins his attack

"Don't die, Ryuu,"

Hehe.

An arrow - no, if it is that big it looks like a spear of fire. Anyway, it shot forward through the air towards me, the speed is really big compared to the Fireball I've been trying to learn

But that's what I want. When we talk about speed....

Accelerations

I remember a scientist once said, The fastest thing is light, faster than that is teleportation. But as the times grew, many new findings broke down this idea

Something faster than light exists, and it is this thing that holds the mystery of the universe from us

dark energy is said to fill 68% of the space in the universe and dark energy is also the reason why our universe continues to expand with ever-increasing rather than decreasing acceleration

That's why the universe is expanding so fast, too fast for us to study it. It is even believed that in the distant future, intelligent beings like humans would not know the formation of the universe or the big bang as many people now admit

So what's the point?

That acceleration is just like the ever-increasing development of the universe, the difference is that I can manage this

So I set it to the point where I was as fast as the speed of light

I moved to the side to dodge the fire arrows and advanced slowly in front of Kyouka exactly, it felt like time was going very slowly when I entered this ability

When I'm ready, I'm done with the acceleration

"Eh!?"

Hmm... I was curious as well as what kind of scenery Kyouka saw, could it be that I seemed like I was suddenly in front of her?

I hit him on the head with my wooden sword

"sick! This time what is Ryuu!?"

"hehe. that's because you put me down,"

Looks like I heard something from down the hill, is that my three children - I mean my three friends who have found us?

But his voice sounded quite loud compared to my friend's third step

Accuracies

As I said before, with accuracy I can see the target closer, it's one of its features but the main purpose of accuracy is yes so that I don't misattack

With this I can see what the sound really is

Is squad? No, they look too open. I think they are a group of hunters from our tribe, they carry arrows and spears

"What's Ryuu?"

"I don't know, but I think we should go back to the village" I replied

I felt like something was about to happen, I don't know, but I was pretty sure of how I felt.

We went down the hill and met three of our friends who were looking for me and Kyouka, then we went back to the village together

Although through thick forest like this, we can arrive at Afiel village without losing direction because it is already very memorized

When we returned to Afiel Village, this time it was crowded again like when the ritual used to be but now it is not organized like yesterday

Afiel village is usually not this crowded, almost all have work that is mostly done in the house or outside the village. Rarely see such a big gathering, what is it?

"Ah right too! The fighters have returned" Harold said

"Who are these fighters?" Much

"Eh? These M-they are a group gathered from all over Ruby to face threats from the outside world,"

I have a few questions but I don't think Harold will be able to answer any more than this

"Didn't your older brother also belong to this group, Rune?" Ask the other child, what is his name?

But is it true my brother was in there? I don't really remember

"My father and mother also went in there" Kyouka said

Uh. I've never heard of it

"Rune!" Who is this guy who looks like me? Is he really my brother?

"Rune, it's been almost ten years, you've grown up huh," he said as he patted my hair

"Y-yeah..." What am I supposed to say?

I saw Kyouka who was also hugged by a couple who must be her father and mother.... He also seems to enjoy this

Many of this group also let go of longing for ten years, some even had time to cry. Ten years is a long time and a short time, it is natural that if they miss the house very much, on the other hand they have grown more mature

The elder finally came and everyone stopped talking to look at him, he greeted the group with a smile and a blessing

Wow. I know where this is going....

That night a party was held, to welcome the return of the group who ten years ago left this, also good if occasionally partying and eating until full

From my seat, I could see the elder together with the leader of the group earlier seemed to be talking about something important. I need to know what it is, I think it'll help us in the future

"Kyouka, come with me" I held her hand while she was still eating

"Eh?"

"Rune, where are you going to take Lofi" Now there are protective parents.... I can't just take her by force

"Eto.. I want him to accompany me to pee...."

"Eh...? Yes, but do not stop by, because he has not finished eating," said the mother

"I understand" I replied as I walked away

Huhhhhh....

Kyouka smiled broadly at me as if she was mocking me

"Are you shameless Ryuu? It's been ten years still afraid to pee alone, hehe." he said.

"Just kid, we'll do something else,"
